“No!” Alfred cried, whacking at the steering wheel. “No, no, no, come on! It’s just a little snow!”

Indeed, snow lazily drifted around Alfred’s car, landing on the slushy road he had been driving along. Now, his car, like so many others around him, had gotten stuck and would no longer move forward, only sliding towards the sidewalk. Irritated, Alfred slammed his foot on the gas and watched in horror as his car ploughed into a small snowdrift he’d initially been trying to avoid.

Sighing, Alfred slumped forward, resting his head on the edge of the worn steering wheel. He wasn’t sure why he’d thought his second-hand Volvo would be up to the challenge. Obviously, he’d pushed the old girl too far. It looked like he was stuck in Westminster for Christmas Eve. Probably Christmas Day, too, with the way his luck was playing out. If only his parents hadn’t moved away from town for work purposes this year, then he’d already be in their living room, sipping eggnog and watching the snow fall with a smile.

Instead, he battled to get his door open before slipping and sliding to his trunk. There, he grabbed his bags, slinging the one with the presents over his shoulder. It made him think of himself as being Santa and grinned momentarily before remembering that all the presents would sit in his apartment until he could meet with their recipients again. And he wouldn’t get to see Matthew or Adam till New Year’s, at least. Gloomy, he fished out his phone and began to call around to make sure everyone knew he wouldn’t make it.

He was halfway home when he realised that it would be the first Christmas he would spend on his own. Shuddering, Alfred wondered if any of his old college friends were still around to call over to at least spend Christmas Eve with him. Then he remembered various conversations of people going home in the last few days, leaving early to make sure they weren’t snowed in by the forecast weather. If he hadn’t offered to cover a shift in the afternoon, he’d already be at his parents’ place. Sighing, knowing there was nothing he could do now, he headed to the Safeway and picked up some food fit for a Christmas dinner alone.

As he was shopping, a thought occurred to him, a memory wrapped in a spark of an idea. His next door neighbour, Kirkland something, had declared that he didn’t do anything for Christmas whatsoever. If that was the case, he’d still be in his apartment tonight. Maybe he could invite the man over for some company. Remembering some of his less than stellar encounters, Alfred almost baulked at his idea. But he was desperate and couldn’t afford to be picky. He would just have to hope that Kirkland wouldn’t complain about anything.

With his new plan for Christmas, Alfred hurried home, making sure to put all the food and presents away. Then he grabbed a book he’d been gifted and never read, stuffed it in a spare gift bag and plopped it under the tree. Pulling on a Christmas jumper with bells on, he left his Christmas-filled apartment and bounded next door, knocking sharply once he’d remembered that Kirkland had been so startled the last time he pressed the doorbell that he’d spilled his tea, apparently. That had not been a happy first meeting all ‘round…

Beyond the door, there came a shuffling. Then there was a rattle and a click and the door opened to reveal the smaller blond man wrapped in a deep red dressing gown. Frowning, Kirkland peered up at Alfred. “Yes?”

“Er, hi! Merry Christmas!”

“Right,” Kirkland said. “Aren’t you supposed to be going home or something?”

“Ah, er,” said Alfred, rubbing the back of his neck as he ducked his head. “Might have better luck tomorrow… if I can dig my car out. But, with the snow…”

“Are you… asking me to help?” Kirkland asked, looking Alfred up and down.

“Wha-? No.” Grinning, Alfred spread his hands. “I can’t get home so I thought we could spend Christmas together!”

Kirkland stared at him. “Why?”

“Uh, ‘cause I don’t wanna be alone and you don’t wanna be alone, do ya?”

“Maybe I do,” Kirkland replied, sticking his nose in the air.

“What are you, the new Scrooge?”

Scowling, Kirkland stepped backwards. “I have absolutely no reason to-”

“Wait!” Alfred exclaimed, jumping forward to stop Kirkland shutting the door. As he did so, he noticed the lack of decorations in the small hallway of Kirkland’s apartment; perhaps the guy was a minimalist in Christmas decorating. Shoving those thoughts to the side, Alfred dredged up his mighty weapon: the puppy dog eyes. “Please. I really, really don’t want to be alone on Christmas. It’s-” He broke off, realising that anything he said might be taken as an offence.

For a while, Kirkland stared at him, eyes narrowed. Then, what felt like an eternity later, the cold air in the corridor giving Alfred a horrible chill, Kirkland sighed. “Fine,” he said. “I’ll see you in the morn-”

“What? No. We gotta do presents now!”

Again, Kirkland stared at him. “ _Now_? Why now? It’s only Christmas Eve. Besides, I don’t have a present for you.”

“Just give me anything, then.”

Clicking his tongue, Kirkland looked over his shoulder, clearly wanting to return to what he had been doing before. He looked back at Alfred and paused before sighing heavily. “Let me get dressed and I’ll come next door for a little while.”

“Yay!” Alfred cheered. “Don’t forget the present!”

Hurrying back to his own apartment, Alfred made sure his living room was as tidy as it was going to get, dumping things into a bin or behind the saggy armchair he still had to get rid of. He put the gift bag on his coffee table and rustled up some candy canes. Then, remembering that he still didn’t have any eggnog, he went to the kitchen and pulled out the new bottles that he needed, setting about measuring things out. As he had left the front door open for Kirkland, he heard a timid knock on the door a few moments later and a quiet call.

He managed to reach his hall in time to stop Kirkland from retreating back to his apartment. Grinning, Alfred waved his whisk. “Come on in. Make yourself at home. Ah, but, don’t sit on that burgundy armchair – no-one can ever get out of it again.”

“Hm,” said Kirkland, closing the door and moving past Alfred. He clutched a hastily wrapped parcel: it had balloons on the paper and the words 'Happy Birthday’. Clearly Kirkland was a little more prepared than Alfred to wrap last minute presents.

Returning to the kitchen, Alfred continued with his preparations. Once he was finished, he poured the mixture into two mugs. For himself, he was using his Captain America mug; for Kirkland, he’d decided on the American flag one. Finding a warped tray his mom had given him years ago and he hardly used, he placed both of them on it and grabbed the broken packet of discount Christmas cookies. Then he finally made his way to the living room, rather excited despite it only being Kirkland.

“Hey,” he said as he entered the room, finding Kirkland sitting primly on the couch. He was tugging at the sleeves of a bottle-green jumper, the pair of black trousers he was wearing making him look altogether rather grim. When Alfred spoke, he looked up, unimpressed. “I brought eggnog,” Alfred explained as he set down the tray beside the two presents. Grabbing his own mug, he stepped past Kirkland and settled into the better, beige armchair, the rather small Christmas tree looming over his shoulder.

“Huh,” Kirkland replied, lifting the second mug. His nose wrinkled in distaste at the sight of the mug but he took a sip, anyway. Almost immediately, he coughed, almost dropping his mug onto the table in his haste to put it down.

“Woah! You okay?” Alfred leaned forward, wondering what he should do.

“I’m fine,” Kirkland assured him. “It’s just… stronger than I was expecting.”

“Oh. I’m sure I got it right…”

“It’s fine,” Kirkland said, firmly. “Can we just get this over with? I want to go home.”

Alfred frowned, a little annoyed that Kirkland was brushing this aside so easily. “So do I,” he told him. “But I can’t. That’s why we’re here.”

A slight pause. “Right,” Kirkland said. Another pause. “What exactly are we going to be doing, then?”

“Opening presents. Me and my family always open one present each on Christmas Eve. Then we open the rest in the morning…” Alfred trailed off, suddenly remembering that he wouldn’t be able to do that now. He’d sent all the presents gifted to him by friends ahead of him so his mom could arrange them under the tree; he would have done that with his own gifts but he’d liked the idea of being Santa Claus for the night. Sniffing, he took a large gulp of his eggnog and his eyes watered.

Seemingly seeing the tears, Kirkland nodded. “Fine. Let’s… do it. It’s getting late – it’ll be Christmas Day soon.”

“You open yours first. It’s in the bag.” Looking dubious, Kirkland pulled it towards him. Grinning, Alfred watched him closely, hoping he’d smile at the very least. “Merry Christmas, Mister Kirkland.”

Wrinkling his nose once again, Kirkland looked up at him in disgust. “'Mister Kirkland’?”

Realising that Kirkland had figured out he didn’t know his first name even after months of living beside him, Alfred looked down into his mug. “Uh, er-”

“It’s Arthur.”

“Then, uh, Merry Christmas, Arthur,” Alfred declared, grinning at him.

Rolling his eyes, Arthur reached into the bag and pulled out the book. He stared hard at it, blinking. “Is this…?” he began, obviously dumbstruck. “What is this?”

Leaning forward, Alfred made sure he’d picked up the right book. Then he shrugged. “A book I’ve never read. It’s a bit dusty, maybe, but it’s still good, right?”

“'American Psycho’?” Arthur said, turning to stare at Alfred. “Is this… Is this a comment on _me_ or you?”

“Huh? It’s just a book. I’ve seen you with books before. You like 'em, right?”

There was another short silence. “I see,” said Arthur. “Well. I’ve already read it but I don’t actually own a copy. So… Thank you. I suppose…”

“My turn!” Alfred declared, brushing aside Arthur’s unenthusiastic response. Setting down his mug with a loud thud, he grabbed his present and ripped the paper off. Bits of it flew around, one piece landing on Arthur’s lap, the rest falling to the floor. As Arthur picked up the paper to put it on Alfred’s table instead, Alfred blinked down at the pile of DVDs Arthur had given him. They were all cartoons: Batman, the first season of Ninjago, the first four seasons of The Clone Wars and the first three seasons of Adventure Time.

“They… were my brother’s,” Arthur explained, staring into his eggnog. He hurriedly took a sip when Alfred looked up at him.

“Oh, cool. Does he not want them any more? 'Cause these are pretty cool! Though… a bit… old.”

Arthur tensed, his grip on the mug tightening so much Alfred thought it would break. “He’s dead,” Arthur said.

“Oh. Oh, God, Arthur, I’m so sorry. I-”

“It’s fine,” Arthur sighed, relaxing and putting the mug down. He glanced at the DVDs. “He left those at mine when I’d move into my own place, so he could watch whatever he wanted when he turned up. But…” Arthur shrugged.

“I’m so sorry,” Alfred said, grimacing. “He… He didn’t die… _now_ … did he?”

“No, he died in the summer. That’s why they only go up to those particular seasons. Before you ask,” Arthur added, his mouth twisting in an attempt at a bitter smile, “he had leukaemia. My family kind of broke apart because of it.”

“Is that why you don’t do anything for Christmas?” Alfred couldn’t stop himself asking.

Arthur gave a harsh bark of laughter. “No.” He shifted to lean closer to Alfred, almost conspiratorially, looking grumpier than ever. “Sure, after Peter died, we didn’t want to 'celebrate’ without him. I suppose we lost the magic. And my family tend to cancel Christmas plans at the last minute. But it also opened _my_ eyes. Have you seen when shops have things in for Christmas? September. That’s ridiculous. What’s the point of the other holidays? Everyone’s too busy worrying about it. And the way they rush around? Ha! Christmas is just a way for retailers to make more money. It doesn’t _mean_ anything any more.”

“But! But Christmas is all about family and-and happiness and joy!” Alfred exclaimed, aghast that someone couldn’t like Christmas. “It doesn’t matter about the presents, as long as you’re with the people you care about and having fun. Christmas is about smiles.”

Snorting, Arthur shook his head. “Really? The presents 'don’t matter’, huh? Then why did you make me bring one here?”

Alfred froze. “I- Well- I-I mean…”

“Forget it. I’m going home,” Arthur said, rising from his place. “Merry Christmas,” he added with a sneer.

The horrified Alfred could only stare up at the man, shocked that his last resort was leaving him to spend the next day alone. They hadn’t even gotten to discuss dinner the next day. Tearing up, Alfred watched Arthur leave, unable to find the words to make him stop. The front door slammed shut and Alfred curled up on the armchair, hugging the DVDs Arthur had left behind.

 

* * *

By the next morning, Alfred had decided that it had been a mistake to invite Arthur. Clearly, he needed three or four ghosts to make him see sense. Or was it five? Alfred rooted through his multitude of DVDs and Blu-Rays to find The Muppet Christmas Carol, a grin plastered on his face despite having no-one around to convince. As he moved some out of his way, he came across The Grinch and paused, blinking.

Maybe Arthur was only grumpy because no-one had invited him to anything. As far as Alfred was aware, no-one had gotten him a present, either. Even his book had been a last minute thing. He’d never intended to see Arthur over the next few days. No wonder he’d been so mean the night before.

Looking at the two DVDs, Alfred held back his tears as he tried to work out which one to watch. Usually, if they were putting on a movie, he and Adam would fight over these two. Matthew preferred Love Actually – something to do with Colin Firth getting wet or whatever.

Just as he realised that he didn’t have anything to interrupt either of the movies, there was a knock at his door and he jerked in surprise. Dropping both of them, eager to have company, he raced to the door and pulled it open. There, clutching at a full and heavy-looking plastic garbage bag, stood Arthur, a Bah Humbug Santa hat on his head, deep red dressing gown covering a set of black pyjamas. It made his bright eyes stand out more and Alfred could see the dark circles beneath them.

“Ho bloody ho,” he said before yawning widely. He was too late to put his hand over his mouth and cursed under his breath. “Fuck. Sorry. Look, will you let me in or not? It’s Christmas Day, isn’t it?”

“Uh huh. Buh?” Alfred said weakly, instinctively moving out of the way. Arthur struggled to heave the bag over his shoulder and staggered inside. Alfred slowly swung the door closed, still confused at what was happening. He followed Arthur to his living room where he found him in front of the tree, bag open. “What?”

“You asked me to spend Christmas with you,” Arthur sighed, frowning up at Alfred. “I agreed so… here I am. Do you need any help with cooking? Or do you not have any _proper_ food?” He glanced at the candy canes on the tree with distaste. Then he returned his attention to the bag, reached in, and produced a present wrapped in 'Happy Birthday’ wrapping paper.

“Wha-? Wait. Where did you-? Why are you here?”

Arthur stopped unloading presents for a moment before resuming his task. “I… may have been… _Well_. This is…” Arthur swept his hands over the presents.

“Oh,” said Alfred, smile forming. “Where did you get all these?”

“They’re presents people have given me before and I didn’t use. Sorry, it’s all I had on such short notice. Maybe you’ll like some of them.”

Grinning, Alfred crouched down beside him. “There’s loads here. And you wrapped them all?”

Arthur rubbed at an eye. “Yes.”

Alfred was touched, smile growing. He had obviously judged Arthur wrong. Reaching for the bag, he began to help unload them. A thought occurred to him and he frowned. “I don’t have any other presents for you. I can have a look and-”

“It’s fine. Don’t bother yourself. You still have to cook.”

“Ah, yeah, that’s right! I got a haunch of ham last night and some vegetables. Ah, and pie!”

Looking confused, Arthur tidied the pile of presents. “Ham? What about the turkey? And the Christmas pudding?” Then he blinked and seemed to realise something. “Oh, wait. Sorry, I was thinking…” He seemed to sadden, staring at the tree.

Quickly, Alfred jumped to his feet. “You finish up there, I’m gonna make more eggnog and then we can watch The Muppet’s Christmas Carol and I’ll start cooking later.”

“I’ll help,” Arthur told him before he could leave the room.

“No, no,” Alfred insisted. “Look at how many presents you brought me – I can’t have you cooking as well.”

Somehow, that simple statement made Arthur smile, a small thing that he turned to hide. It made Alfred pause, surprised and intrigued. Then, shaking himself from his thoughts he hurried off to the kitchen.

 

* * *

The presents turned out to be mostly aftershave or deodorant sets. Some of them were novelty things, little joke books or an unopened miniature tea set. One of them had revealed a knobbly pink hat with a darker pink pom-pom on top. Alfred had looked at in horror, tearing his gaze away from it when he heard an unexpected sound.

Arthur had been laughing, probably fuelled by the mug and a half of eggnog that he’d already consumed by that point. It made Arthur’s face light up, made the shadows under his eyes disappear. His cheeks turned a rosy red as he held his stomach and his eyes sparkled with mischievousness. All in all, it made him far more strikingly handsome than he usually was, something Alfred hadn’t actually thought about before.

With the presents opened, Alfred put on The Muppet’s Christmas Carol and they made comments on the movie or sang along to the songs. Of course, his parents called during it and he ended up missing most of it to talk to them in the hall. However, he decided it was worth it when he returned to the living room to find Arthur curled up on one end of the sofa, fast asleep. Unable to stop a fond smile forming, Alfred sneaked off to find a blanket and draped it over Arthur, making sure he was tucked in before watching the rest of the movie.

When he got up and stretched once it had finished, he paused to look at Arthur a little more closely. Alfred had always thought of Arthur as being older than him. That may still be the case but he looked far younger with his face relaxed in sleep. Alfred watched him for a few moments, starting in surprise when Arthur sighed and shifted slightly. His new position made his hair fall across the bridge of his nose. Arthur’s brow furrowed and he groaned, stirring. Hastily, Alfred leaned down and swept his hair away. At that, Arthur relaxed, a small smile forming on his lips as he sighed and fell back into a deep sleep.

Heart beating a little faster, Alfred drew back from Arthur, eyes wide. The Christmas tree caught his attention and he hurried off to start cooking. He must have made too much noise for, in the middle of checking on the ham, Alfred turned to find a sleepy Arthur in the doorway. Almost dropping the tin, he set it down and grinned at Arthur.

“Hey. You’re awake.”

“Yes. Sorry.”

“Well,” said Alfred, his smile widening, “you didn’t have an army of elves to help you with those presents.”

Cheeks turning red, Arthur nodded to the floor. “Is there anything I can help with?”

Alfred considered it. “Hm. Set the table? Though I don’t have a dining room so maybe we can watch The Grinch, too… You could set that up, too, if you want?”

“This is _your_ Christmas.”

“It’s yours, too.”

Arthur bit his lip and nodded. “Right. Thank you.” He turned to go but ended up turning in a full circle. “Ah. I need…” Stepping forward, Arthur made a gesture and Alfred jolted from his reverie.

“Oh, right,” he said and helped Arthur get out what they needed. Then he returned to the food while Arthur went back to the living room.

For a while, they both worked hard, dodging around each other as they set up the dinner. Sometimes they bumped into each other and they both chuckled each time. Finally, they had laid out the spread: ham, an array of vegetables, roast potatoes, chunky fries and the pecan pie set off to the side. The Grinch had been put on and, as they began to eat, they watched a green Jim Carrey being mean.

“Kinda reminds me of you,” Alfred commented with a grin.

“Watch it,” Arthur growled, though Alfred could tell he was amused.

“Does that make me Cindy Lou?”

“Ha! Not a chance. You’re not as sweet.”

“Then what am I?”

“Far more annoying,” Arthur answered without missing a beat.

“So mean!” Alfred cried, pouting. Arthur laughed and Alfred decided being called annoying wasn’t so bad.

Silence descended for a while as they ate and watched the movie, commenting on it occasionally. It wasn’t so bad, Alfred though, though his mom’s cooking was far better. Arthur complimented him on it while they were eating the pecan pie. Alfred swelled with pride, smiling widely

“I mean,” Arthur continued, that mischievous glint back in his eye, “this is far better than the main meal.”

Alfred glanced at Arthur, pouting a little. “Gee, thanks.”

Again, Arthur laughed, making this the happiest Alfred had ever seen him. “Sorry, I couldn’t resist. In all honesty, it was really good. Thank you, Alfred.”

“You’re welcome.”

“And… thank you for inviting me, even though you’d rather be with someone else. I-”

“No!” Alfred tried to exclaim around a mouthful of pie. He quickly chewed and swallowed so he could speak without spraying Arthur with food. “No. I mean, if I’d known you were this fun, I’d have asked you to things before now. This has been great.”

“Oh,” said Arthur, smiling bashfully around his fork.

Alfred had to look back to the TV to stop himself from saying anything stupid.

 

* * *

After The Grinch, they put on Love Actually in tribute to Matthew and the fact that Arthur was English. As they did, they drank more eggnog and ate the pile of chocolate Alfred had fished out of his cupboards. With the day drawing to a close and the movie lulling them into a peaceful mood, Alfred began to feel tired, the ups and downs of the last 24 hours taking their toll. Beside him, Arthur was almost dozing off, fighting to stay awake. He yawned and spoke, obviously trying to ward off sleep.

“I do love this film,” he said, quietly. “But it always breaks my heart when Andrew Lincoln’s character and Emma Thompson’s one don’t have as happy a time as the others.”

“Aren’t you sweet,” Alfred said with a grin. He watched Arthur slowly smile, tiredly blinking. “If you’re tired, you can go home, you know. You don’t have to stay.”

“No,” Arthur protested with a pout. “I want to watch the rest.”

“You’re practically asleep already.”

“It’s the eggnog. I’ll wake up with a cup of something caffeinated.”

Alfred considered that but shook his head. “Nah, I don’t have the energy to go make something for you.”

“Oh, you’re a horrible host-” Arthur began but broke off with a yawn.

Laughing, Alfred put his arm around Arthur without thinking and pulled him over till his head was on Alfred’s shoulder. “Here. Better than you falling forward into the table,” Alfred said.

At first, Arthur tensed, obviously not used to the position. Then, slowly, he relaxed. “Thanks,” he mumbled.

Alfred realised what he’d done and blushed, making sure to keep his arm on the back of the couch so it wasn’t awkward. He kept as quiet as possible, waiting for Arthur to fall asleep. With his heart beating slightly faster than normal, Alfred woke up a little, constantly glancing at Arthur’s head. He was too distracted to watch the movie and almost completely missed the section with Rowan Atkinson wrapping the necklace. Arthur seemed to miss it too as his breathing evened out and he relaxed more, nuzzling into Alfred’s shoulder.

Obviously, Arthur had fallen asleep.

Taking a deep breath, Alfred stared down at Arthur, wondering what was wrong with him that he was reacting like this to the close proximity of a man he’d thought of as grumpy and annoying only a few hours before. Trying to force himself to watch the movie, he hoped it would quell a rising desire within him. Unfortunately, watching Keira Knightley’s wedding only made him want it more and he suddenly gave in.

Turning his head slightly, quickly, he pressed a quick kiss to Arthur’s hair. Then, satisfied with his Christmas Day, he returned his attention to the movie and eventually fell asleep with his head upon Arthur’s.

(It wasn’t until two years later when Alfred and Arthur were stuck in their apartment for Christmas Day, Arthur with his head on Alfred’s lap, Alfred gently stroking Arthur’s hair and their cats claiming spots on Arthur’s stomach and Alfred’s shoulder, that Arthur told Alfred that he’d been awake for the kiss: he hadn’t quite drifted off yet and so had clearly felt it.)

**Author's Note:**

> The next morning, Alfred asks Arthur to go to his dad’s work’s New Year party with him. Arthur agrees, glad that someone’s asking him to something. Then they get there and Alfred regrets it because everyone and their dog starts asking him if Arthur’s his boyfriend. He keeps correcting them but it embarrasses him so much that he drinks too much and is so drunk by midnight that he grabs Arthur and kisses him on the bells. The next morning, he’s forgotten about it and Arthur doesn’t tell him, rather amused that he knows that Alfred likes him but no-one else - not even Alfred - knows.
